Art makes us human. When a machine makes art, it challenges that axiom. With certain advents in art-making technology, the relationship between art and humanity has been called into question. Today in the West the music technology that raises the debate is machine-learning algorithms; a generation ago it was MIDI; a century ago it was mechanical instruments; five centuries ago it was instruments other than voice. psalter ex machina  is a site-specific work for  Orgelpark in Amsterdam  which...

Alloy explores the sonic possibilities inherent to the natural horn as a physical object. The piece eschews the hegemony of temperament and cultural expectations that are imposed on the horn and instead imagines a sound space derived from the physical properties of the instrument itself. The horn is treated objectively as a piece of extraordinarily resonant metal, and electronics built with SuperCollider expand the phenomena of the sound space.

The Greeks originally invented the organ, but over several centuries, the Greek organ design faded away only to be revived by engineers in the Byzantine Empire where it was associated with grandeur, opulence, and royalty. In fact the organ was frequently given as a gift from Byzantium to powerful Western rulers including Charlemagne. And yet, ironically, the organ has...

Meteorologists forecast weather events by monitoring water vapor in certain atmospheric spectra bands. In the global climate crisis, forecasting extreme weather has become a matter of life and death. In March 2019, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) auctioned off the 24 GHz spectrum band for 5G telecommunications. The auction process, called "Spectrum Frontiers," collected nearly $2 billion in bids. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the...
